Its better than episode 2. That stupid Klaus thing and Victoria's ridiculously selfish argument just drove me nuts. Also...doesn't it feel like they broke Barney and Quinn up a little quickly?

I loved the episode. Yeah, the broke Barney and Quinn up really fast with little buildup, but I felt that their engagement played out the exact same way. Little buildup and suddenly they were "in love". Anyway, she's gone, won't complain about that. Quinn's character aside, I was thrilled to Barney single again so he could return to form. He's funniest as a character when he's unattached. I also really loved the Lily and Marshall subplot.

I actually liked Robin's story in that one to, it was really just the utter idiocy of Ted and Victoria that bugged me.

I love and love the 4th season of FRINGE. Anybody watch this show?_________________Observation: Life would be cooler if everyone spoke like HK-47.

I keep meaning to, I hear its a great show. I have a friend who watches it and just raves about it. Didn't it get moved to the death slot on Fridays where it wound up still being popular?_________________Perfection is a lifelong pursuit requiring sacrifice.

Watched the first episode of Arrow last night. So good! I'm looking forward to it continuing.

I don't know much about The Green Arrow, but it was still a really good show, despite any lack of knowledge.

And I understand they're going to bring in various other DC Comics characters (specifically those that do not have powers; the one I read about was Huntress). So that's cool.

Ya...TILL THIS NONSENSE! Her argument is literally the only one that makes no sense. Ted said Klaus could stay for a bit, but when he gets bit through the eyelid by a ferret or he's walking around nude and she defends it she's gotta go. Any woman who did that to me would have merely gotten broken up with. And she's apparently messy now? How did he never find that out before, you would notice that within the 3 months they dated in season 1. Ugh... inconsistency...

I've ping ponged on Victoria. I hated her in her first appearance(no first names, ruins the moment = stupid), liked her when it reappeared early last season, and hated her once again when she ditched Klaus.

Between the Robin thing last year and now this it just seems like they're trying to do a HIMYM greatest hits thing before they wind down and finish, and its unnecessary to me. I can't stand this new Victoria, Klaus, or the speed with which they're forcing Barney's story-line. Some of it all makes sense, but not the way they're doing it.

WB did a short lived Birds Of Prey series with Huntress, Black Canary and Barbara Gordon. I wonder if that is going to tie in with continuity to GA or just reboot the character. Does GA tie into his character on Smallville or did they reboot?_________________Spread out all around us is a petrified world, a world of Things, where we ourselves, our gestures, and even our feelings figure in as Things.

A word of warning: for some reason it goes white about 7 minutes in, though you can still hear the dialogue. The blankness only lasts for about two minutes and the rest of the episode plays fine.

Now, on to my thoughts:

Mordred and Morgana's reunion was well handled. Once again Alexander Vlahos turned in a stellar performance.

During the dinner scene I found myself thinking about "The Beginning of the End." In that episode all four of them - Arthur, Merlin, Morgana, and Gwen - were instrumental in saving Mordred's life. Now Morgana wants the other three dead. When she was ranting about Arthur, I could see that Mordred was struggling with his feelings, conflicted between the man who helped him escape Camelot and the woman that he had such a close bond with. His telling Morgana to calm down showed that he was realizing just how much she had changed. I didn't have any idea what he would do after that- but I was definitely not expecting him to stab Morgana. It'll be interesting to see how their relationship plays out during the rest of the season.

Slightly disappointed about Athiusa - under Morgana's control? Sheesh. What about Kilgarrah's words when she was hatched? Do they mean nothing now?

I was also annoyed about the change to Kilgarrah's words about Arthur's death - a Druid instead of Mordred? Come on!

I still enjoy this show very much and will watch it till it ends (and buy the DVDs too), but I think the creators need to get a better handle on continuity and stop tripping over what's already been established in prior seasons.

Reboot.

Birds of Prey is one of the most horribly executed shows I've ever had the chance to see. Holy hell that was bad. All characters mis-represented, all links to DC characters poorly done, all acting so bad you have to be trying to be in the out-group on purpose to say you enjoyed it. Dear lord that was awful._________________Perfection is a lifelong pursuit requiring sacrifice. The only way to get it quicker is to sacrifice the most.

Hey, I never said I enjoyed it. I didn't even watch it, but I remembered it and it seemed like a sort of weird thing that it did tie in to Smallville, so if GA also ties into smallville it sort of screws up the continuity to discount it.

Not that they care at all about that and neither do I. Just curious._________________Spread out all around us is a petrified world, a world of Things, where we ourselves, our gestures, and even our feelings figure in as Things.

Believe me, I wasn't accusing you of liking it. I've gotten to where I have a decent handle on your preferences and I know you wouldn't be into it. Frankly I'm surprised anyone, anywhere was into it.

GA is its own thing actually, or so I'm told. I haven't got any interest in watching it but that's the story I get from others._________________Perfection is a lifelong pursuit requiring sacrifice. The only way to get it quicker is to sacrifice the most.
